Pennzoil - Feel the Clean

How do engines get dirty in the first place?

All the time your engine is operating it's generating acids, combustion gases, water vapor and fuel byproducts; these contaminates attack the motor oil throughout your engine. Unchecked, they will eventually form deposits that can clog oil passages, gum up moving parts and ultimately can reduce engine responsiveness.

Having a clean engine can be critical to engine performance – the way it feels when you step on the gas.
